Happy Bastille Day!

Tarte au Citron
I hope all my Francophile friends ate something French today in honor of Bastille Day.

I had a busy day so I picked up a Tarte au Citron from Trader Joes tonight. Once I plated it on a pretty Spode Toile cake plate it looked just like one from a Paris Patisserie!

I highly recommend this tarte if you're ever in a pinch and don't have time to bake.

Vive la France!

We have a winner!

Drum Roll Please...

Liberty of London Reusable Bag

Only two dedicated readers entered a comment for my contest give-away of a Liberty of London Reusable Bag. I have decided to reward both readers and give them each a Liberty of London Reusable Bag.


Here's what the winners had to say about the bag:

Annemieke: I didn't realize Target still had Liberty of London. Being the new Cali girl that I am I am always looking for new reusable bags for my shopping.

Ruth: How pretty! If anyone could find such a lovely reusable shopping bag, it would be you!

Congratulations ladies and thank you for being a faithful readers of my blog! Your bag is on the way!

Love that Liberty!

Liberty of London Reusable Shopping Bag

Okay, by now it's pretty obvious just how much I adore Liberty of London prints. Since it's summer, I am still trying to get my fix of Liberty's flowery prints.

Check out what I found shopping today...this adorable fold-up Liberty of London For Target Reusable Shopping Bag! It's the only little 'bit of Liberty left at Target, if you're lucky enough to find it!

Liberty of London For Target

This eco-friendly shopping bag has been pretty hard to find for Liberty of London fans like me. I was so thrilled today when I found it! I love that it folds compactly into a wallet shape and fits nicely into your handbag.

This bag is a flat shopping bag (book bag shape) made in 100% polyester. Based on its shape and size it wasn't designed for holding groceries. It's a great little bag though for toting home small personal sundries like cosmetics, magazines, cards, etc.

Reuse to Reduce

I love Liberty's Sixty print which is the pattern on the bag. It reminds me of my mod bedroom wallpaper I had back in the early 1970's! I also love that Target will give you 5 cents off every time you use a reusable bag!

Now for the fun part, you know I couldn't buy just one bag so...you get to enter my contest to win your very own Liberty of London For Target Reusable Shopping Bag!

All you have to do to enter is: leave me a comment on this post with your name and email. I will randomly select a winner within a week and post the winning comment. The winner will then need to get in touch with me to give me your mailing address to receive your bag. One entry per person, please.
